Habranthus robustus started blooming next (5/25):
This is undoubtedly the most popular of the Habranthus species and is native to Brazil. Like most of the South American rain lilies, it tends to have higher moisture requirements than other rain lily species. For, it’s a very heavy bloomer of large pale pink flowers with green eyes in May-June. It’s also a rapid multiplier, quickly forming thick clumps from both offsets and seeds. Recommended for growing in zones 8-10. This is definitely the most robust Habranthus species we grow and a joy to behold when in bloom! Much nicer than Z grandiflora.
